Raising Pork Chsaply.

We need more grass and clover, and
less corn, upon which to make our pork.
More grass and clover means cheaper
growth and less disease. just as the great
corn and pork producing lands have been
developed, has swine disease sprung up
and increased, because our swine are given
monotonous diet Of dry, oily food
Grass and clover are the foods Of nature,
and the swine harvest them. They require
little preparation Of the ground for them,
aud no cultivation. When pastured they
build up. rather than exhaust, the land
and it can not be successfully disputed
that they are essential factors in the pro-
duction Of the cheapest pork. Let the
pigs narrowed in the spring be put on
grass and clover as soon rs they are fit to
be grszed, and kept on them as long as
they are palatable, and the result will be
pig not fat, but in good condition and
thrifty, that until fall has large, healthy
bones and muscle and vigorous appetite
for corn. And then it may be fed corn
largely, for this will put fat on the large
frame the pasture has made, and the hog
is vigorous enough to digest the corn well;
and if the hog is fatted rapidly and mar
keted as soon as fully fat, it Is the cheap
est pork that can be made-the cheapest,
not counting loss from disease. But swine
plague rarely invades the pasture; its fG-
vorite place OF appearance is in the small
lot, paved with cobs aud manure. The
hog summered on grass and clover is so
vigorous that it rarely sickens when being
fatted on corn la eely, but also other food,
and in clean quarters with pure water. -

The common COW may live and thrive
on less food than will keep the we'll bred
!! COW in good condition. but though she con
sumes less food she is burden and ex-
pense to her owner il she does not pay for
what she does eat
There is but very limited idea among
the mass OF farmers Of what constitutes q
good COW. They do not make the ne
cesssry efforts to learn the amount Of milk
in its producing qualities in butter and
cheese.
II farmers wife wishes to obtain the
highest market price for her dairy prod

The German Rechstag committee on
the bill relating to artificial butter has
adopted motion that the stuff must be
called, not butter but oleomargarine,
and must not be colored to initiate genuine
butter.

as possible, in order to prevent the sbsorp

A SCHEME of improvement of the most
extensive and splendid character is in
the process of evolution by some OF our
foremost citizens. Mr.. Prudent Beaudry
intends to lay out beautiful park at
the head of Reservoir No. 4, in the hills
north of the present terminus of the
Temple street cable road. That whole
picturesque country will be brought
into demand by being laid out
in terraces, with winding avenues and
grand boulevards. The projected rail.
road to Santa Monica boy, of which we
spoke yesterday, will be run so as to
take in these hills, and it win then be
carried along the base of the Cahuenga
range, skirting the ranches lying on the
plains; then proceed through the Rodee
de los Aguas. the Buenos Ayres and the
San Vicente; returning after forming Q
great horseshoe to this city. Such 6
scheme is not only grand in conception,
but if carried out will spread the resi-
dence area of our city for miles beyond
its present limits.
